The most effective way to track a new habit you are trying to develop is to create a Goal with a repeating task.
The goal becomes the new habit you want to develop. And the task is the daily or weekly (or other) frequency you want to commit to in order to embed the habit.
Here’s an example:
Goal: Create a habit of rising at 6:00am every day.
Repeating Task: Get up at 6:00am today!
Recurrence: Daily for 21 days. (You can set the recurrence to weekdays or every day)
As you progress, you can either “complete” the task each day or if you don’t succeed that day, simply “skip” the task and it will move the next due date to tomorrow so you can stay on track.
